summer time...

Ever since I was little we always looked forward to playing in the irrigation water. We used to wait til the peach orchard was full of water and we would go out and play still the flag at night or other night games. My sister and I would have some serious mud fights til we were either laughing so hard we were crying or we were literally crying cause some one got hurt. There are so many memories for me here in the orchard and the pumpkin patch and I am thankful we still have a chunk of land for my kids to enjoy. I know it is one of the last pieces of land around this place and I hope it stays this way for a long time. This summer how ever has been so hectic we have hardly made it out and finally did late Friday night! The kids had a blast as usual...

That looks like so much fun. We used to play in the irrigation water at my grandma's house as kids, there is nothing better.

Oh boy does that bring back memories. I love irrigation days. We sure had some good times in our youth. Too bad we don't get it anymore on that side of the street, guess we should just come over and use yours!

It was so great to see this pictures and see what you wrote about playing in the irrigation water reminds me of when I was a kid, guess if you grew up in Orem most of us remember this things but it so good to hear your memories and remember when my kids did those things. Found your link through Suzannes blog and glad you are there to keep an "eye" on my boys.
